A lack of focus: You have to be aware of your surroundings in order to have successful inventions. Don't focus completely on inventing, but when you go through the day you need to be able to notice when you see something that could possibly be a problem to solve with an invention. I carry around a journal where I can write down my thoughts. This journal also helps tangibly remind me to think about inventing, which is what a good inventor has to be able to do.

A lack of Information: A lot of people lack an understanding of the inventing process as a whole, especially the part after you have come up with an invention. There is a lot of legal work involved in inventing that most people don't know the half about. The main part of the legal work is patents, which is the step that a lot of first time inventors fear. However, there are many ways for you to acquire information on the legal side of inventing. There are books and websites that have information, which are great places to start. Fear of failure: The fear of failure impedes people from doing so many things they want to do. Inventing is the same. Many people are scared their invention won't make it and they will be a failure. You can't let this inhibit you. There is no such thing as a failure who keeps trying; you have to keep going even when it's hard; don't quit because you are scared you won't be successful. People can't take criticism: This is similar to fear, but I think it is different. When you come up with an invention idea people are going to criticize it, that's a guarantee. Many people can't handle this and allow critics to convince them that their idea isn't good. If people are criticizing your idea that means it is unique. You can heckle them when your idea is bringing in a substantial profit. Lack of commitment: This is by far the biggest inhibitor for possible inventors. Honestly, this could lead to the rest of the things I have mentioned. You have to be fully submerged in what you are inventing. You have to have a vision that you are willing to do anything to accomplish. When you are busy, you have to make time; the easy way out is off limits. If you are completely committed, then the invention idea will come - anyone can do it. More information: Learn more about how to have a profitable invention.
